Time

Time and time
aside, a giggle might
redeem your lips.

Time and time
surrounds the goose as it walks
before your cruising car.

It's fine and then again
it's not how we remembered.
We hoped for so much more.

Time and time
a gale will gust confetti
from a letter into her hair.

Time and tears
tell us who we fear
might reject our arms.

It's the time
and the notes within them
that guide your feet.

Time and time's date fate
will dance on white walls slowly,
so oblivious to our beats.
